Chapter 140 It’s Always Too Late For Regrets

Evan heard the sound of something cracking and shattering, but he paid it no mind, refusing to give the blade wraith even the slightest bit of time to recover as he coated his sword in lightning and swung it downwards faster than he normally could, releasing another aura slash simultaneously.

As soon as he did this, he let go of his sword and allowed it to fall to the ground, dropping to his knees and slamming his hands into the ground.

He poured his magic power into the ground and a burst of flames manifested on the ground, surrounding him.

Multiple fireballs materialized from the ring of fire and shot out in all directions except to his right, where he knew Eliza was.

**BAM BAAM! BAAMM!!

Some of the fireballs managed to slam into the body of the black armoured blade wraith, cracking its armour and burning off pieces of its flesh underneath.

'Just like this, I sh-!'

"EVANN!!!"

Before the young hero could even think of what attack to use next, he heard his name being screamed out as a large shadow was suddenly cast on the ground in front of him.

His blood ran cold as he felt the pure bloodlust of whatever was standing behind him, moments before the sound of glass shattering was heard, as if a stone had been hurled through a double-paned window.

The few seconds in which the sound could be heard were the few seconds that saved his life as the teenage hero triggered his blink for the third time within a few minutes, teleporting out of his circle of flames.

Despite only being able to move no more than five meters ahead before the skill was cancelled, it was enough to spare him from the fiery sword that tore through the air where he had been just seconds before.

His vision was shaky as he tumbled onto the ground but he managed to glimpse the appearance of the red armoured blade wraith standing precisely where he was a few seconds before.

Luckily, his attacker was unable to send in a second assault as its original opponent appeared in front of it with a speed that Evan could barely catch.

Rings of green light enveloped the person's wrists and feet as they swung their aura-laden sword into the air.

He saw a trail of dark light tear through the air as it streaked towards the neck of the blade wraith, only to be halted by the same sword that nearly cut Evan's journey short mere seconds prior.

As soon as Evan was able to pull himself back up off the ground, three golden coloured crossbow bolts zoomed in on him, prompting him to jump out of the way to avoid them.

"Unforged!"

He called out to his blade as his weapon control skill was activated, causing his sword to fly into his hand.

Gripping it tightly, he turned his gaze in the direction of the familiar golden armoured blade wraith that was dashing towards him.

"Eliza, on my signal, I need you to give me a speed buff."

As soon as he spoke, he kicked off the ground and dashed forward to meet the incoming blade wraith.

**CLANGG!!

Their swords clashed for the second time today, with Evan twisting his body and diverting the impact of the seven-foot-tall monster's blow to the ground, before whirling around and executing his counter assault to the monster's left side.

However, the blade wraith took advantage of its greater speed and strength, bringing up its blade to the side as it stopped Evan's attack.

Evan swiftly moved backward taking distance from the monster in preparation to execute a ranged strike.

Sadly, the monster perceived his aim and didn't allow him as much room as he would have desired.

Golden aura surged around the blade wraith's weapon as it rushed forward while swinging its blade in three, diagonal slashes.

Evan lifted up his own sword, wrapping it in aura as he swung it at varied angles to parry the blade wraith's repeated assaults.

The young hero immediately opened his lips, ambient energy swiftly collecting in front of it before being fired out as a beam in the direction of the shocked blade wraith.

**BAMMM!!

**CRACKK!

The beam of magic power slammed into it fair and square, cracking a piece of its armour as Evan finally attained the distance that he had desired.

He stretched his hand into the air, with half of it instantly travelling into a small fifty-centimetre-long black hole that had appeared mid-air, and grabbing a bottle out of it.

Briefly glancing at the bottle to confirm if it was the right one, he downed the contents while keeping his eyes trained on the monster that was slowly but surely staggering to its feet.

"Eliza! Now!"

Evan shouted as he tossed the bottle away and kicked off the ground, dashing towards the seven feet tall Blade wraith in front of him with his sword in hand.

His body glowed as a thin layer of white light that signified the activation of his paladin skill enveloped his body.

Next, a green ring of light appeared around his ankles as his speed increased to a level that made the blade wraith lose sight of him for a moment.

And that moment was all Evan needed to deal a deadly blow.

'Blink'

He activated his blink skill and flashed to the monster's side, his sword coated in his signature golden aura as he swung it towards the monster's waist, intending on severing it in two.

**CLANGG!!!

Sadly, his attack was blocked in the last moment as a flaming crossbow bolt crashed into his blade and diverted its path, making him miss his swing.

'Shit!'

Before he could regain his posture and attack again, his opponent had already noticed where he was and turned its glowing red eyes in his direction.

He made a split-second decision to blink away and that prevented him from being hit by the monster's lightning-coated fist that came crashing down on his previous location.

"This...might have been a bad idea."

"Now you regret it?"

He heard Pride's voice reply to his words as she sent out a ball a ball of black flames in the direction of the blade wraith in front of her who retaliated by firing multiple bolts of bright red flames from its crossbow.

**BOOM!!

On the other hand, the black armoured blade wraith who had recovered from Evan's earlier onslaught of attacks, charged at Eliza with its sword in hand, however, the battle priestess rolled out of the way to avoid the blade coated in an ominous black haze that came crashing down on the ground.

After that, she rolled toward the hero and the demon whose backs had just touched, and then she got up, tightening her grip on her staff, and glared at the blade wraith that had come dangerously close to beheading her just a few seconds before.

"Yep, going inside the room with the monsters was a horrible plan!

Her weary voice resounded across the room as she narrowed her eyes and stared at the ominous black cloud that surrounded the blade wraith's black sword.

It was at this point in time, that Evan finally had the peace of mind to activate his appraisal skill on the trio of blade wraiths that surrounded them.

"!!!"

Their statuses were displayed in order of the gold armoured, black armoured, and red armoured blade wraiths respectively.

Evan was at a loss for words as he examined the monsters' statuses.

All three of them were named monsters that by all rights, could be considered floor bosses on their own!

With levels no lower than 119, it was simply impossible to find such monsters in anywhere before the tenth floor of the dungeon.

Another thing Evan noticed, was that the monsters seemed to be placed here just for him, Pride, and Eliza.

That was the only thing that could explain why the one that attacked him happened to be a lightning sword master while Pride was attacked by a flame sword master.

As for Eliza who possessed Life magic, she was attacked by a monster with dark magic on the exact same tier as she did.

"That son of a bitch! He picked these three on purpose!"
